Fan-favorite creators Tony Fleecs (Stray Dogs, Star Wars Adventures) and Tim Seeley (Revival, Hack/Slash) have a success on their palms with the favored new superhero sequence, Local Man. The scorching debut is being rushed again to print this week with a purpose to sustain with fast reorder exercise.
“Tony and I made Local Man because we loved it. We loved ’90s Image Comics, we loved crime noir stories, and we loved the unlimited potential of the comics medium,” mentioned Seeley. “And to have it connect with readers who were hungry for something new and weird, rewarding us for loving it? Well, that’s the most Image Comics thing that can happen.”
Each situation of the sequence is a traditional Image Comics “flip book”-style format with the lead story drawn by Fleecs and a superhero flashback—into the depths of the Image Universe—drawn by Seeley.
Fleecs added: “It’s been so fun, seeing people’s reactions to the book. I did a bunch of signings the week the first printing came out and watching people’s faces light up when they realized there was a whole other comic on the flip side… It reminded me of that charge I got 30 years ago when I flipped over Youngblood #2 and saw ShadowHawk busting onto the scene for the first time.”
Local Man follows the as soon as star recruit of media sensation super-team Third Gen—Jack “Crossjack” Xaver had all of it. But when controversy sends him crawling again to his mother and pop’s basement within the Midwest, Jack struggles to suit right into a world he left far behind. And then the our bodies begin piling up.
Local Man #1, 2nd printing (Diamond Code JAN239856) will likely be out there at comedian e book outlets on Wednesday, April 5.
Local Man will even be out there throughout many digital platforms, together with Amazon Kindle, Apple Books, and Google Play.
